Program Notes 


Franz Schubert (1797-1828) 

Rosamunde: Overture, D. 644 (1823) 

Schubert began composing his incidental 
music to the romantic drama Rosamunde, 
Princess of Cypress on November 30, 1823 
and finished on December 18, 1823, two days 
before the premiere. Not much time was left 
to rehearse either the music or the two ballets, 
and no time at all to compose an overture. In 
fact, Schubert never did compose an overture 
to Rosamunde. Instead he used an overture 
already composed for an earlier work. 

It is said that Schubert’s music was from 
an overture to an earlier “magic play’’ 
(Zauberstuck) called The Magic Harp (Die 
Zauberharfe). 

The drama, Rosamunde, Princess of Cypress, 
survived for exactly two performances. Even 
though Schubert’s music had been singled 
out by the Viennese press for high praise, it 
fell into obscurity along with the play and was 
not brought to light again in its entirety until 
1867, when Sir George Grove of dictionary 
fame and his friend Arthur Sullivan made a 
joint expedition to Vienna for the purpose 
of unearthing Schubert’s still-neglected 
manuscripts. The two men were successful 
beyond their wildest dreams: in the booty 
they brought back to London were parts of 
Schubert’s Rosamunde music, performed in 
London for the first time since the Viennese 
production of the drama. 

(Notes from Edward Downes’ The New York 
Philharmonic Guide to the Symphony) 

Michael Colgrass (b. 1932) 

The Schubert Birds (1990) 

The Schubert Birds is a concerto for orchestra 
based on Franz Schubert’s Kupeiwieser 
Waltz, a little known piano piece that Schubert 
wrote as a wedding gift for his friend Leopold 
Kupeiwieser. Kupeiwieser was a painter and 
a member of a special in-group of Viennese 
admirers who would gather privately to hear 
Schubert’s music. Listeners will recall the 
term ‘Schubertiad,’ coined to define these 
gatherings. "I call the work The Schubert Birds 


because I often think of Schubert as a kind of 
bird who spent his life singing, and who was 
surrounded by others who were attracted by 
his lyricism and sang with him,” says Colgrass. 
“(Musicologist Maynard Solomon pointed 
out in a recent paper that letters exchanged 
between Schubert and his friends referred to 
‘peacocks,’ ‘pheasants' and ‘nightingales,’ 
etc., terms that he postulates were intended 
as a code to mask their homosexual activities. 
Hence, by chance, my title may have 
connotations that I had never intended!)” 

Schubert has a kindred spirit in jazz 
saxophonist Charlie Parker. Parker, too, sang 
with the natural ease of a bird and was even 
nicknamed Bird. They both lived fast and died 
tragically young (Parker at 34, Schubert at 31). 
So, it seemed quite natural that the middle 
section of this work be in the recitative blues 
style of Charlie Parker, to show their affinity. 

In musical form, The Schubert Birds is a 
tapestry of several dozen variations on the 
Kupelweiser Waltz heard two or three at a 
time in almost perpetual counterpoint. For 
example, the above-mentioned section is a 
bluesy duet for oboe and contrabassoon (in 
C major) alternating with a fast-tempo muted 
trumpet (in F major). These two variations 
are interrupted intermittingly by a dream-like 
waltz in violins playing harmonics (in D minor) 
and the violas playing a chorale (in G minor). 
And this whole section is framed by a forcible 
declamatory statement in low strings and 
horns (in C# minor). So, five different variations 
are woven together here to make this one 
section. A straight-forward lyric version of 
Schubert’s theme appears in the cellos and 
violas early in the work, and Schubert’s 
original theme is heard in orchestrated form 
close to the end. Some listeners might enjoy 
piecing together this crazy quilt of theme and 
variations, while others might prefer to simply 
stroll freely through my own fanciful concept of 
Schubert’s subconscious world. 

(Notes by Michael Colgrass) 


Richard Strauss (1864-1949) 

Four Lieder, Op. 27 (1894) 

Four Lieder, Op. 27 was a wedding present 
from Richard Strauss to his wife, a famously 
tempestuous soprano, Pauline de Ahna. They 
met in 1887 and married on September 10, 

1894. The four songs are his final completed 
works. Though they were written in 1894 for 
voice and piano, they weren’t orchestrated 
until 1948, after he had completed his Four 
Last Songs. Strauss died in 1949. 

Strauss was heavily influenced by poetry 
for the Four Lieder. In Ruhe, meine Seelei, 
the first song composed in 1894, the words 
are from a poem of the same name (which 
translates to Rest, my soul) by the poet Karl 
Henckell. Cacilie (Cecille ), the second song, 
also written in 1894, takes its words from a 
love poem written by FHeinrich Hart. Fleimliche 
Aufforderung (The Secret Invitation), the third, 
and Morgen! [Tomorrow!), the fourth, are from 
poems by John Henry Mackay. 

Antonin Dvorak (1841-1904) 

Symphony No. 7, Op. 70 in D minor (1885) 

Although Dvorak’s “New World” Symphony 
is his most famous symphonic score, many 
musicians, including his principal Czech 
biographer, Otakar Sourek, consider the D 
minor Symphony, Opus 17 to be his greatest. 

In his Symphony No. 7, it was Dvorak’s 
ambition to surpass everything he had hithero 
achieved in the symphonic field. There were 
several reasons for this. One was that the 
London Philharmonic Society had nominated 
him an honourary member in June 1884, and 
invited him to compose a new symphony for 
the Society. The request emphasized his newly 
won international standing, and he wished to 
increase it with his new score. 

Another factor which had fired Dvorak’s 
ambition was the overwhelming impression 
which Brahms’ Third Symphony made upon 
him at the premiere in December 1883. 

Dvorak believed Brahms’ new score to be the 
greatest of all modern symphonies, and he 
was filled with the desire to produce a work of 
similar structure. 


Finally, as a Czech composer deeply involved 
in the revival of Czech culture and its 
future growth, Dvorak wished to enrich the 
Czech symphonic repertory with a work of 
international as well as national appeal. 

The composition sketch and the orchestration 
of the score were completed in Prague 
between January 13 and March 17, 1885. 

The first performance took place in London on 
April 22, 1885, with the composer conducting 
the London Philharmonic Society. Two years 
later, the Symphony had its first hearing on the 
continent when Hans Richter conducted the 
Vienna Philharmonic. Not until October 27 and 
28, 1889, however, did the Symphony enjoy 
a real triumph. These latter performances 
in Berlin under Hans von Bulow were so 
important to Dvorak that he pasted a picture 
of Bulow on the title page on the manuscript 
of his Symphony and wrote underneath: 

“Glory be to you! You brought this work to life!” 

(Notes from Edward Downes’ The New York 
Philharmonic Guide to the Symphony)

Translations 


Ruhe, meine Seele (Rest my soul), Op 

Nicht ein Luftchen regt sich leise, 

Sanft entschlummert ruht der Hain; 
Durch der Blatter dunkle Hulle 
Stiehlt sich lichter sonnenschein. 

Ruhe, ruhe, meine Seele, 

Deine Sturme gingen wild, 

Hast getobt und hast gezittert, 

Wie die Brandung, wenn sie schwillt. 
Diese Zeiten sind gewaltig, 

Bringen Herz und Hirn in Not — 

Ruhe, ruhe, meine Seele, 

Und vergiB, was dich bedroht! 

Cacilie (Cecille), Op.27, No.2 

Wenn du es wuBtest, 

Was traumen heiBt 
von brennenden Kussen, 

Von Wandern und Ruhen 
mit der Geliebten, 

Aug in Auge, 

Und kosend und plaudernd, 

Wenn du es wuBtest, 

Du neigtest dein Herz! 

Wenn du es wuBtest, 

Was bangen heiBt 
in einsamen Nachten, 

Umschauert vom Sturm, 
da niemand trostet milden Mundes 
die kampfmOde Seele, 

Wenn du es wuBtest, 

Du kamest zu mir. 

Wenn du es wuBtest, 

Was leben heiBt, 
umhaucht von der Gottheit 
Weltschaffendem Atem, 

Zu schweben empor, lichtgetragen, 

Zu seligen Hohn, 

Wenn du es wuBtest, 

Du lebtest mit mir! 


No.1 

Not even a breeze stirs lightly, 
the wood lies slumbering peacefully; 
through the dark cover of leaves 
steals the bright sunshine. 

Rest, rest, my soul, 
your storms have been wild, 
they have raged and trembled 
like the surf when it breaks. 

These times are immense, 

bringing heart and mind into torment — 

rest, rest, my soul, 

and forget what threatens you! 


If you only knew 
what dreaming is 
of burning kisses, 
of wandering and resting 
with one’s beloved, 
eye to eye, 

and cuddling and chatting — 
if you only knew, 

you would give your heart to me! 

If you only knew 

what torment is 

on lonely nights, 

surrounded by a raging storm, 

with no one to comfort in a mild voice 

your struggle-weary soul — 

if you only knew, 

you would come to me. 

If you only knew 

what living is 

surrounded by God’s 

world-creating breath, 

to float up, carried by the light, 

to blessed heights — 

if you only knew, 

then you would live with me! 


.27, 


Heimliche Aufforderung (Secret Invitation), Op.27, No.3 

Auf, hebe die funkelnde Up, raise the sparkling 


Schale emporzum Mund, 

Und trinke beim Freudenmahle 
dein Herz gesund. 

Und wenn du sie hebst, 
so winke mir heimlich zu, 

Dann lachle ich und dann 
trinke ich still wie du... 

chalice to your lips, 

And drink at the joyous feast 
to your heart’s content. 

And when you raise it, 
so wink secretly at me, 

Then I’ll smile and drink quietly, as you... 

Und still gleich mir betrachte um uns 
das Heer der trunknen Schwatzer — 
verachte sie nicht zu sehr. 

Nein, hebe die blinkende Schale, 
gefullt mit Wein, 

Und laB beim larmenden Mahle 
sie glucklich sein. 

And quietly, like 1 do, look around at 
the crowd of drunken revelers — 
don't think too ill of them. 

No, lift the twinkling cup, 
full with wine, 

And let the noisy feast 
be a joyous occasion. 

Doch hast du das Mahl genossen, 
den Durst gestillt, 

Dann verlasse der lauten Genossen 
festfreudiges Bild, 

Und wandle hinaus in den Garten 
zum Rosenstrauch, 

Dort will ich dich dann erwarten 
nach altem Brauch, 

But when you’ve savored the meal, 
your thirst quenched, 

Then leave the loud gathering’s 
joyful festivity, 

And wander out into the garden, 
to the rosebush, 

There 1 will be waiting for you 
according to ancient custom, 

Und will an die Brust dir sinken, 
eh du’s gehofft, 

Und deine Kusse trinken, 
wie ehmals oft, 

Und flechten in deine Haare 
der Rose Pracht. 

0 komm, du wunderbare, ersehnte Nacht! 

And 1 will sink into your breast, 
as you have hoped for 

And drink your kisses, 
as so often before, 

And 1 will weave into your hair 
the rose’s splendour. 

Oh, come, you wondrous, longed-for night! 

Morgen! (Tomorrow!), Op.27, No.4 

Und morgen wird die Sonne wieder 
scheinen, 

und auf dem Wege, den ich gehen werde, 
wird uns, die Glucklichen, sie wieder einen 
inmitten diesersonnenatmenden Erde... 

And tomorrow the sun will shine again, 
and the path 1 take, 
will unite us again, we happy ones, 
upon this sun-breathing earth... 

Und zu dem Strand, dem weiten, wogen- 
blauen, 

werden wir still und langsam niedersteigen, 
stumm werden wir uns in die Augen 
schauen, 

und auf uns sinkt des Gluckes, stummes 
Schweigen... 

And to the shore, vast with blue-waved, 
we will quietly and slowly descend, 
we will look into each other’s eyes 
and into us will sink the muted silence of 
true bliss...
